sh!t goal? Hardly. Canada got running around and the puck trickled off his own D-man in. Luongo's stoned the Czechs several times.

This has been an awesome game.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The replay CBC had showed the puck going directly in... no deflection off the D. Maybe he was screened and didn't see it, but still you have to stop that shot from that angle.

That said, Luongo has stopped something like 27 of 28. We're getting badly out-shot and Luongo is doing his job out there. It's sorta like Brodeur. He makes so many awesome saves that when he lets in an easy one, you have to forgive it... it more than evens out.

Yeah, his rebound control is absolutely amazing. :rolleyes:

Why are there SO many excuses for every goal Luongo allows? Face it, he's not half the goaltender Brodeur is and never will be.

It's unfortunate for those who blindly defend him, but oh well. They can only deal with hypotheticals and they're all they will have--for a while.
